Harry Potter And Other Stuff





Today I went to see the new Harry Potter movie. I love all the books and the movies. I'm so grateful to J.K. Rowling for writing the books. I've read and re-read the entire series so many times and I'm going to start reading them again. You never get tired of reading them because they are just so good and it's nice to lose yourself in that world of magic and wonder. It's kind of scary too, especially as the books go along.
I think The Deathly Hallows is my favorite movie so far out of all the other movies. It was filmed perfectly. My favorite scene out of the whole movie, is when Snape goes to the Malfoy's and they're all sitting around that table with Voldemort. I just love everything about that scene. It was chilling and I loved it. I just love Helen Bonham Carter and I'm so happy they got her to play the role of Bellatrix. I love Alan Rickman playing Snape. He just does it so well and I love the character of Snape. I think he's the biggest hero in the entire series. I think he had the hardest job of all of the Order Of The Phoenix. It's great to see how Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint have all grown up. You first saw them as these little kids and now they're adults just like the characters grew up.
I just wish that all the actors, actresses, writers and directors and everyone that has brought the movies to the screen would get the credit they deserve. I can't believe how talented all the actors and actresses have been that have starred in all the movies. I love them and I've very grateful to them for bringing Harry Potter and his world to life.

I've been trying to read more lately and I just finished a book called 13 1/2. This was a very interesting book. It was about a sick relationship between two brothers. I just can't believe what one brother did to the other one and everything that happened. I think I need to start reading some Christmas books and get into the spirit of Christmas. I've still got a few more vampire books to read, but I think I can squeeze some Christmas in between them. I'm usually reading about five books at a time. I'll read a few chapters in each of them and sometimes, if they are really good, then I keep reading one until it's read. I also finished that new V.C. Andrews book. I know darn well that V.C. Andrews had nothing to do with this book or how many of the others. I think it's one of her family or someone writing new books and just using her name to sell them. I doubt it's some unfinished work of hers. If it is, then she had tons of unfinished books before she died. She's been dead for a long time and there's more books from after she died, then before. I love to read them and I don't care who's writing them because they are still good. This latest vampire one was interesting and a good read.

Last night, I froze my ass off watching a Christmas parade. It was pretty fun though. I love to go to parades and I went to this one last year. Then I saw some Christmas lights. They're animals and stuff like that in a park and they're all lit up and cute. I loved last year because my nephew was here and he went to the parade and lights with us and now he's gone again. I enjoyed every minute I got to spend with him and I hope one day to spend more time with him. I missed so much time with him and his brother. You can never get that time back, but there was nothing I could do about it.

I also watched The Christmas Cottage with Jared Padalecki in it. I just love this movie. I remember two years ago when my oldest sister bought it for me for Christmas. She gave it to me early and surprised me with it, because I never knew it was out and she had saw it being advertised on a channel on TV that I didn't watch. I was so happy and I just love that Jared is in this movie. There is no other actor that would have been better to play Thomas Kinkade in it. Jared just has these sweet looks and his beautiful eyes and I just want to hug him or something when I watch the movie. I love that scene where Thomas goes to see Glen and he brings him that candle and says he has nothing to give him, just love. I cry every time despite myself. I love that Jared has such a wide range of acting talent. He can play such various roles and I love that Sam has changed so much on Supernatural because it shows that Jared is an awesome and talented actor. He can express every emotion and make me believe every one of them and that's what makes a great actor and that's what Jared is. I'd still love to see Jensen play a different role. I mean a really different role and not that same Dean persona all the time. Even on Supernatural, Dean is still Dean and has been since the start of the show. His character hasn't changed all that much and most of the time is static and same old same old. It would be nice to see his character Dean do something totally different for a change. I doubt it will ever happen because fans would freak out of their minds or something. I know darn well they would.

Well, this has been another long one, but I needed to type.
